A really interesting factoid about Arc that I'm not sure many know about: their upcoming Windows app is written in Swift and SwiftUI. They've contributed significantly to the language to get it building on Windows and are re-implementing Win native backends for some of Apple's core libraries. All of this will be open source when they're done (or so they claim).

Source for this? SwiftUI depends heavily on Apple/macOS-only APIs, both in use and design.

this tweet[1] from one of their engineers claims that the Windows version is completely written in SwiftUI using WinUI[2].
